HELP PLZ!
my 13yrs old golden SCAN report from orthopedic came with most probably Osteosarcoma in her Leg!!
with sever hip dysplasia in the other leg, and starting of scoliosis in the spine due to age.
The report came yesterday - Her Vet, advices where two and left me the choice to pick.
1- due to her age (13) and the arthritis and the dysplasia and that she had lost her breath twice under anesthesia (one 4yrs ago in a surgery) and the second the anesthesia for the SCAN. He told me its at a high risk to go under another surgery amputation of the leg.!!! or i can go for it if i choose to.
2- to keep her and start giving her Tramal or CBD OIL for pain relief and try to keep her comfortable and live the few months thats left for her without putting her under surgery and post surgery pain/risks that will only prolonged her life up to 6months.
please note that in my country we do not have chemotherapy and radiation to support the surgery afterwards.
i am in a total Freeze both discussions are not easy because I can not imagine to keep my dog with pain killers and of she can’t later on tolerate the pain to put her dxxxx (i dont want to write it)
i am lost she is now fine still fine but limps and likes her self a bit. But she is still awake and active.
my brain does not process anything - to go for surgery with the risk of loosing her under anesthesia or maybe not. To remove the leg and put her under stress and pain after surgery recovery which is up to 3weeks to prolong her life up to 6months.
(( when she went into anesthesia for scan she stayed 4 days to recover!!!))
or to keep her with pain killers and try to CBD oil ( i dont know what would happen with days how the pain will be! ))) and as per the vet says, when the pain becomes hard to manage its time to put her Dxxxxx.
its noway for me to even think about it my dog is my life we have lived together happy 13 yrs but life is unfair and sometimes we have to decide and not being selfish and think of our emotions only.
i dont have alot of time to decide ( altho now she is good playing walking and eaiting she doesn’t seem sick! I dont know!)
(We cant make biopsy to make 100% sure bc she will have to go under anesthesia again and pain after it)
This is very very bad situation very bad if only anyone if you had a dog with this bad cancer give me advices or share your story pros and cons
